Happy to say that Fritta is coming along really well and is still on track to be ready for vs Sydney. They might hold off until week one of the finals. They’ve yet to decide. There was a scare on the weekend though but that turned out to be a false alarm. Mrs Frittata and I were on the plane to Hobart wringing our hands in angst. Thank sweet baby Jesus in heaven it was much ado about nothing, or at least about nothing serious. He was stoked to report to his mum that he’s now “running on real grass.” A huge step in his recovery, apparently. So barring anything unforeseen, *31 will be fit and firing at the pointy end of the season. *we call him 31 in texts coz it’s quicker to type. Hashtag literally just a number to his own mum. 😂

Couldn’t care less means there’s no possibility of caring about something to any less a degree as you do now. Could care less means there is a possibility for caring about something even less than you do now. Simples. Anyways, deciphering Clarrie-speak is futile. Even his family agree. Last year during the ‘Dogga: will he or won’t he stay?’ saga, Clarrie’s mum Michelle was heard to say that she personally hopes Dogga stays since he makes her son sound intelligible and even eloquent. 🤣

The ignore option is great, but you’re still subjected to posts of those whom you’ve chosen to ignore when someone quotes them. I find pins in voodoo dolls much more effective.

Well said, BPA. Your boss should give you a pay rise!

Oh that’s right! He needs to have kids, I forgot about that. Can’t have a father-son/daughter without the son/daughter part of the deal. 😁

20 more games and we can add Maysie to that list.

Yes, it is. It will be a shared banner for them. It’s been done before and we still have it looking amazing. By the by, I’ve been counting the rounds down to Nibbler’s 150 for a while now. Two reasons: first, I love Nibs and I’m stoked for him that he’s reached this milestone, and secondly because I’m imagining all the Nibbler-bashers boo-hooing coz he’s still getting a game every week. Every single week. 🥳🤩🤗

Definitely! Only the best for our incredible captain. Jinx? What jinx? No jinx to be seen here. 🤞🏼 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Yes, Rick had a special banner for his 150th. And it was a ripper. 🤗 For players who’ve come from another club, we acknowledge their overall AFL games tally, but not their MFC-only games tally. As you said, he’s been fantastic for the Club. He’s also a big hit with the cheer squad. He’s super friendly and imho is easily the funniest of them all.

Speaking of which, we debuted a new chant on Sunday. It was composed by Ben, our 9yo chant leader in the making and son of Sophie. It’s sung after a Tracc goal. Let’s hope we’ll be singing it many, many times in the next few weeks. https://streamable.com/dr7ph6 The lyrics are: 🎶 He’s better than Daics, He’s better than Daics, Christian Petracca… He’s better than Daics 🎶 The above shows Ben striking up the chant. Tracc and Chin were near us and turned around and smiled. Engagement with us during a match is Gold. ❤️💙

Any city is beautiful if you’re only there for work.

I’m on my way to Casey Fields right now. Why? Well, I’m glad I asked. 😁 The AFLW team photo shoot takes place this morning and although I’ve never played footy in my life, I get to be in it! Yay! 🥳 ❤️💙

The passengers on that packed replacement bus weren’t chuckling, that’s for sure!

Don’t worry about our salivary glands, PD. There’s always enough drool to go around. That said, young SOSOS would surely put a dent in our supply. 🤭

I have nfi what this is but if anyone ever sees me doing it… please shoot me. TIA.

I can vouch for that. While I didn’t play a game of footy on it, I know the turf was schiit since several of our banner crew slipped and/or tripped. And it wasn’t our regulation klutzes (for example me), it was those who can boast that until yesterday their arzes rarely come into contact with the turf. 😁

We SOOO need an eye-roll emoji. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Replace? No. Add to… Bloody oath! Although Jayden will always take pride of place. ❤️💙

Some MUCH-deserved love for our wonderful vice-captain… After the siren, before the boys ran off the field to the rooms, Jack and Tracc broke away from the group and made a bee-line straight to us, followed a minute later by Salo and Bowser. The players aren’t told to do this, they choose to. Anyways, I was on the far left and since the players start the hand-slapping a little towards the middle my hand didn’t get a look-in. Totes all good though, I’m just happy to be there yelling out to them, as all us psychotic nuffies in the DA are. 😁But… Jack realised he hadn’t hit my hand so he doubled back just to do so. A little thing yes, but a huge thing at the same time. He’s quite something else. 💕

Yep. Locked in.

But we won’t… therefore your good self and your laptop will remain dry as a bone. 😁

Sunday 3:20pm vs Sydney. Probs originally planned for the Buddy Show on Saturday night but since his retirement was immediate, now it’ll probably just be a pre-match send-off with all the pomp and pageantry it deserves. We’ll still rain on their parade, though. ❤️💙

No comment 😭 Seriously, not able to say anything more.

LOLLZZZZ You’re so funny, troll.

@Clintosaurus There was more giant heads than people wanting to hold them up. 😭 Many of the folks in our bay were Tassie-based Dees fans. They didn’t seem interested in giant heads. 🤷‍♀️
